(Jacksonville,FL) A spades game turns deadly after a woman fatally shot her husband for reneging during a spades game. Police say 28 year old Daryl King was fatally wounded with a gun shot to the chest after his wife JerHonda "Mook Mook" King 32, became angry with him for causing them to lose a Spades game.

JerHonda's grandmother Geraldine Washington says the couple were gambling with the family's good stamp allowance for the month.

"They had already lost two games in a row" Geraldine commented saying the couple had gambled away the money set aside for rent and transportation.

Police responded to the scene around 10:15pm and were led on a car chase after JerHonda fled the scene in an 88 cutlass supreme. She was later apprehended in a local strip mall parking lot.
